What is Cognition?

• Middle English cognicion, from Anglo-French, from Latin cognition-,

cognitio, from cognoscere to become acquainted with, know,

from co- + gnoscere to come to know

• The act or process of knowing; perception.

• the product of such a process; something thus known, perceived,

• Faculty for processing information

• Intellectual or mental process whereby an organism become aware

of or obtain knowledge (MeSH)

• A conscious intellectual act , mental process of knowing

learning, thinking, judging

Evolution & Cognition

“Cognition is survival instinct a consequence of carefully

crafted modules dedicated to solving specific evolutionary

problems”

Evolutionary Cognitive Science

Conditioned taste aversion

Garcia discovered that animals learned to avoid novel food products that made them ill in as little as one learning conditioning trial, something that had not been demonstrated with any other stimulus class previously.

Prepared learningSeligman demonstrated a phenomenon in which it is easier to make associations between stimuli that possess a biological predisposition to be conditioned because of a role these stimuli played in an organism’s evolutionary history

Alcmaeon of Croton (500 BC)o Brain as the site of sensationo Optic nerve as hollow carried the information to the brain where sensory modalities had its own localizationo human soul was immortal and partook of the divine nature, because like the heavenly bodies it contained in itself a principle of motion

Brain vs. Heart

Hippocrates 460-377 BC“Men ought to know that from the brain and from the brain only arise our pleasures, joys, laughter and jests, as well as our sorrows, pains, grieves and tears”.

Aristotle 384-322 B.C “the heart as the organ of thinking, of perception and feelings,”“brain could cool the passion of heart”

Phrenology : Gall-1806 Complex traits such as

combativeness, spirituality, hope, and conscientiousness are controlled by specific areas in the brain, which expand as the traits develop.

This enlargement of local areas of the brain was thought to produce characteristic bumps and ridges on the overlying skull, from which an individual's character could be determined.

Laws of specific sense energies – Muller 1826

“Each nerve fiber is activated primarily by a certain type of stimulus and each makes specific connections to structures in the central nervous system whose activity gives rise to specific sensations”
